Also if you goto low profile tyres on bigger rims they will increase noise and rolling resistance.
I was all set to go that route for handling reasons pre hypermiling when I did some research and also found out that they can on a car with fairly stiff suspension deteriorate handling.
I test drove a set and found that the lack of handling in corners if the road is not perfect was real. I am running factory alloys and high quality tyres still.
Google low profiles if you have some time to kill.
